Yes, and you know the exact same meeting with the exact same memo has been run a jillion times -- pre-U.S.-war Ho Chi Minh (reader of the Declaration of Independence), Mossadegh, Arbenz, Castro, the Sandinistas, Hugo Chavez, Lula, etc., etc., etc.

The big question is why guys like Luke keep themselves willfully ignorant of this mountain of cases. What has Chomsky done to drive them to such Orwellian usage of the Memory Hole?
